further InI have been living in the nazarite vow for 5 years now. the vow is as follows
1) no cutting or styling of the hair
2) no contact with dead bodies
3) no consumption of grapes or alcoholic beverages.
this does not include herb, but in some circles limits the use of Herbal teas, as they are intoxicating beverages.

Well of course it doesn't say no marijuana, it wasn't really prevalent during those times. But I understand the Nazarite Vow to be to not impurify your body. That is why you don't make contact with dead bodies or consume alcoholic beverages. Marijuana is intoxicating, smoking it is bad for your lungs, and it kills brain cells. Would God really want someone that has taken the Nazarite Vow to be abusing their body in such a way?
